Grand Theft Auto 5 release date still nowhere in sight, but “substantial progress” has been made

We know that many of you guys are looking forward to getting your hands on Rockstar’s upcoming Grand Theft Auto 5. After all it wasn’t too long ago that the company confirmed the existence of the game via a couple of screenshots, but unfortunately no release date was mentioned. Unfortunately if you were hoping for a release date today, you would still be out of luck as Take-Two Interactive announced during its Q1 FY13 earnings call that Rockstar was not prepared to announce a release date for the game just yet. However did they go on to reveal that Rockstar has been making substantial progress with the game which we’re hoping translates to a possible release date announcement in the near future. So far we only have the rumors and predictions to work on, with some saying later this year, while some claiming that a 2013 release would be more likely. Either way we’ll keep our eyes peeled, so check back with us in the future for more updates!
